Manhunt in Wyoming Badlands After Train Hijacking
A youth robbed a Portland Limited passenger train near Cheyenne taking about $800 from riders. Twelve hours after the derailment, a manhunt fanned out across the Wyoming badlands as cowboys and deputies aided bystanders in the search for the 22-year-old bandit described as nervous and dressed in working clothes. Passengers reported he moved along the cars, threatened travelers, and returned to the platform, with two women injured and one officer crediting a brakeman for averting a disaster.
